Today was one of the best preparation day’s
I have ever had on the mission for a number of reasons. First, we got to go to Wilmington and it is
just awesome over there. There are more
things to do and it is a beach town and so the vibe is just really good over
there. So when we got there, we met all
the missionaries at the Stake Center for basketball. We played the most intense basketball game
and I can now jump higher than ever. I
threw down 2 dunks in the game and it just felt good being on the court. Riding bikes is huge for staying in good
shape, now I get why Montague was so adamant on riding the way we used to.
After basketball we stopped by the coolest
and best burrito place called Flaming Amy’s.
We had it one other time after a zone conference, but words cannot do
this place justice. After the lunch, we
went to the North Carolina Battleship.
Coolest experience ever – We went with about 20 missionaries and got to
see and hear some of the great history with that ship. Pretty cool stuff and we finished the day
doing some more service. Literally not
one down minute the whole day and it was awesome. We have a full week of appointments ahead and
this really started the week right.
Great times in North Carolina!
